Which is why the AG race which a lot of people including my wife thought was a lost cause (interesting to use that term about something in Virginia) was so damn important. Jay Jones is a freak and shouldn't be the AG but he's definitely filling an important role and could salvage his reputation with a successful defense of the referendum.
He's doing great. Remember when HW Bush posted during the 1992 election about how he was ambassador to the UN in 1970?
Or, when Eisenhower bragged in 1957 about being on MacArthur's staff in the Philippines in 1935?
Or, when Reagan bragged in 1981 about his time as SAG president in the late 1950s?
Trump says he 'has to be careful' in rare health admission
Not much of an admission. There are lot of people who wake up each morning hoping for the best news possible and then are sad until the next morning.
So, the story about the Navy Secretary being fired was Kegsbreath didn't like that he had his own relationship with Trump and pitched the new "Trump Battleship" to Trump without having consulted with Kegsbreath.
The new Navy Secretary is a wacko who was trying to be the congressman for my district last year.
I concede the point: Being humiliated by a brown skinned person does seem like a flashpoint for him.
Meanwhile, Trump is giving them all sorts of ammunition to feed a growing narrative of Trump admin incompetence.
The NVA didn't win the battles of the Tet offensive but their ability to prove mettlesome and disprove US narratives actually contributed to the growing anti-war movement in the US.
The Ukrainians ability to continue to stick their fingers in the eyes of the Russians and strong online presence is also key morale element to their war.
what goober is going to change their mind about supporting Trump to the bitter end? Maybe nobody in that category. But, if the will of American allies is taunted by these sorts of propaganda and they see more of their people laughing at Americans its all to the Iranian's good.
Listening to Stuart Stevens talk about the referendum. He says the numbers were:
double digits Yes in areas with predominantly African American residents
single digits Yes in white predominant areas
double digits Yes in Hispanic areas
bare majority no vote in Virginia Beach
Doors blown off for Yes in NOVA and Richmond
So the devious attempts to use Obama images to juice No vote failed because African Americans are not "low IQ" like Trump says they are.
The stars and bars crowd out in the Shenandoah and other places where they worship Robert E. Lee are still out there
Hispanics probably turned off by all of the past year...how is that possible? You set forth a gestapo against everyone who is brown...why don't they like outright racism by the federal authorities?
VA Beach is a GOP stronghold. They barely kept that maybe because some of those military retirees were sick of the current drunken asshat running the organization formerly known as the DoD.
